GCD Studios Homespun Chic!

I have always been a fan of GCD Studios, but when I finally got the Homespun Chic line by Melody Ross...I was blissfully happy! The colors and designs are gorgeous and I just loved playing with all this goodness.

I created this layout with some of the fabulous papers, embellies, and borders from the Homespun Chic line. I love taking spring and summer floral pictures and hydrangeas are some of my favorite. I used this layout to highlight this flower from my brother's yard.

I created my own flower and then surrounded it with pre-made embellishments that I enhanced by adding just a few brads, bling and glass.

This flower started as a plain white flower. I sprayed it with some pink mist, added a pearl to the center and drizzled a little glue on it. I then sprinkled it with crushed glass. I love the elegance it adds to the layout. It also draws out the colors in the pattern paper.

Being the mom to two boys it was so much fun to do this pretty pink layout! Thanks so much for dropping by!

WOW WOW WOW!!! U never cease to AMAZE me!!! Every creation is JUST WOW WOW WOW!!! I loveeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee that photo and the flowers are ALL GORGEOUS! :):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):)

About Me

Hi, my name is Mimi Leinbach and I am 39 years old. Yikes! I am a SAHM to 2 soccer loving boys Nick(14) and Jack(11) and when I am not scrapping I can be sure to be found at a soccer game or helping out at school. I have been married to Josh for over 17 years. He has given me the freedom to indulge myself in this hobby and I just adore him for it. You could say I am obsessed, completely and totally. I have been scrapping for 14+ years now and I would say my style is ever changing. I like to try every technique at least once and some a lot more. I have a passion for patterned paper, to which I just can't seem to get enough. I have been published many times in Creating Keepsakes, Memory Makers Magazine and Books, Scrapbook Etc., Scrapbook Trends, Simply Handmade, Creates Idea Books as well as Scrapbooking and Beyond magazine. I love designing and am proud to have designed for many manufactures and kit club.
